Red Strings of Connections

Chapter 18 Have to Make a Way

Wei Ying blinks in surprise and confusion, while Tiao Reinshun secretly smirk. She knew, definitely, sure that Lan Zhan will definitely stop them, she knew and that's why she pushed it.

Wei Ying, "what's up Lan Zhan?"

On the other hand, Tiao Reinshun grins maliciously at Lan Zhan. Of course, she made sure that Wei Ying wouldn't catch that.

The malicious grins changes into innocent friendly smile before her brother could look at her.

"So? In the mood to play now Second Young Master Lan?"

Lan Zhan let go of them and was about to return on the bed when he hears Tiao Reinshun speak again, obviously has no intention of giving in.

"Then one more Bro Ying! It's no count since we're got interrupted by an old-fashioned cultivator."

"Hey don't tease Lan Zhan, Sis Rein. But alright let's go!"

Quickly Lan Zhan is about to swipe the snack out the table, but Tiao Reinshun sees this coming that she able to hold Lan Zhan's hand, and with malicious knowing smile Tiao Reinshun and Lan Zhan has begun a staring competition or more like glaring contest.

Tiao Reinshun, "Just once Second Young Master Lan. If you play it, then we will stop." Her intention is in there and clear, that Lan Zhan frowns which is really rare.

A minute later, she finally lost the last of her patient that she stands up and pushes Lan Zhan to sit where she previously at, just right in front of her sect brother. Of course, her "no meaning at all" smile is still intact.

Even without her declaring it Lan Zhan and Wei Ying could clearly tell that the next players are— "You two!" Lan Zhan was about to say something but was stop by Tiao Reinshun who whisper a few strings of words directly on his ears that made him shut up although glares greatly to Tiao Reinshun who has sly smile directed to him.

Lan Zhan closes his eyes for a moment before sighing finally given up.

On the side Wei Ying just simply confused on what's going on with these two. But he bet even if he asks none of them would answer. So, he just let go of his curiosity and just decided to have fun, as finally Lan Zhan his favorite person has join in.

"Bro Ying, you're a little too far to Second Young Master Lan, move a little forward."

"Aren't we already close enough?"

"If you are ready to have numb muscle in the back go ahead then." Wei Ying ain't for numb muscles, so he did as he was told, and he was just wow on how close their faces are.

No, don't get him wrong, he used on being so close to Lan Zhan, much closer than this, but it is just a matter of body close not face, and now that he has better "closer" look at his face, Wei Ying could say that Lan Zhan has become even more beautiful than he was before—no—gorgeous is the right word for it.

Subconsciously Wei Ying tightly closes his mouth as he felt that something weird will come out from his mouth if he let it open furthermore.

Tiao Reinshun who is standing next to Lan Young Master clearly sees her brother disciple's pinkish tint on face, she blinks then hides half of her face behind her sleeves before changing her position now next to the said brother of her's.

Lan Zhan seems not noticed the tint blush on Wei Ying, but Tiao Reinshun could clearly see as well his ears that has turn red. She wanna curse on how obvious this two's feelings for each other and curse more on how oblivious they are to other's feeling. 'They will be the dead of me!' she thought.

Sighs escaped from her lips, before giving a piece of stick bread to her brother, "here." her voice is muffled because of her sleeve that she cannot remove or else, they will see her uncontrollable grin. Wei Ying takes the stick biscuit and put the end on his mouth and get more closer to Lan Zhan, and now speaking of Second Young Master Lan, he actually hesitating if he really should play this shameless game but "Then until we finish that snack, me and Bro Ying will keep playing, and by then I will aim for his lips." Those words bother him so much, and Wei Ying seems to be enjoying this game.

With a sigh he placed his mouth on the other end.

Tiao Reinshun who is still hiding behind her sleeves, gives the signal, "Go!" At first the two stay still, both hesitating as they knew that their faces would get closer for a comfort.

"The biscuit will get soggy~" Tiao Reinshun reminds them in her very low voice.

The one that made the first move is Lan Zhan then Wei Ying. They are slow at biting as both being careful not to go overboard. That being the case, Tiao Reinshun was now thinking of a way to push this two to the brink. But... Wei Ying is an unpredictable lad, he felt that he wanna do a mischief towards his favorite person, and nothing will stop him from doing so, not even himself.

As their faces getting closer and closer, Wei Ying put his right hand on Lan Zhan's right leg then his left hand on Lan Zhan's shoulder.

Lan Zhan's eyes widen in shock, looking up at Wei Ying who has mischievous face.

Closer.

Closer.

Three more bites.

Two more.

One.

...and CRUNCH

Quickly Lan Zhan back away but not that much as Wei Ying is holding him in place. Wei Ying eats the remaining biscuit and look alluring at Lan Zhan, who knows if this look is intentional.

"My win, Lan Zhan!" quietly and alluringly.

Lan Zhan nodded, "Mn. It's Wei Ying's win."

Tiao Reinshun closes the door quietly, walks at the next door room and closes it as well, this time much quieter.

A few minutes later she squeals quietly, suppressing her voice to make sure those two won't hear her.

"UGH! They are will really be the death of me!!!"
